That is, in the conventional tracking adjustment, since tracking survey, landing rotor stop, shim adjustment, and the like are all performed manually, there is a problem that it takes time and requires skill in the adjustment. If the backlash is generated during the flight and the adjustment is out of order, it is impossible to readjust it during the flight, and the flight must be performed in a state of high vibration.
In view of the above problems, the present invention measures tracking while flying, and automatically adjusts the rod length of the rotor blade if there is an unbalanced rotor blade to keep tracking within the reference to attenuate vibration. It is an object of the present invention to provide a helicopter rotor anti-vibration device.

1 to 3, an upper pitch control rod 1 is pin-connected to the root of the rotor blade 12 for each rotor blade 12, and a lower pitch control rod 4 is attached to the rotating scissor 6 correspondingly below. Pins are connected, and the lower part of the upper pitch control rod 1 and the upper part of the lower pitch control rod 4 are oppositely oriented to each other, that is, left-handed and right-handed.
Are screwed up and down in a straight line. That is, for example, when the connector 2 is rotated clockwise, it extends between points a and b in FIG. 2, and when it is rotated counterclockwise, it contracts (or vice versa). The connector 2 has a gear shape, and a gear 3 meshes with teeth provided on the outer periphery, and the gear 3 is fixed to a shaft of the motor 5, and when the motor 5 rotates, the gear 3 according to the rotation direction.

As shown in the system block diagram of FIG. 4, a signal indicating the tracking state of the rotor blade 12 blade tip, for example, a reflection signal to a strobe light of a reflector provided on the rotor blade 12 blade tip is amplified by the motor 5. The signal is transmitted as a signal indicating the rotation direction and the rotation angle through the device 7 and the controller 8, and a predetermined amount of the plurality of motors 5 is rotated by a required amount according to the instruction. The distance, that is, the total length of the upper pitch control rod 1, the connector 2, and the lower pitch control rod 4 is adjusted.
Thereby, the tracking of the blade tip of the rotor blade 12 can be kept within the reference value, and the vibration caused by the tracking of the rotor blade 12 is attenuated.
